Frames are used to store sub-pages, either iframe or frameset. The window object is a global object, and all functions and objects on the page are in its scope.
1. parent indicates the parent window. If the parent window has several layers of nesting, top indicates the top-level parent window. Self indicates the window itself.
Java code
If (self = top) {//} checks whether the window is in the top level
If (self = parent) {} // You can also
2. Parent-Child page Interaction
1) access child page elements from the parent page. The elements of the Child page are all in their own temporary Doc ument object. Get it first and then let's talk about it.
It is best to set the name attribute for frames, which is the most convenient operation. For example
Java code
<Iframe name = "test" src = "child.html"> </iframe>
If you want to obtain the element whose id is 'menu 'in child.html, you can write it like this:
Java code
Window. frames ["test" cmd.doc ument. getElementById ('menu ');
// Because all functions are stored in the window object, you can remove the window at the beginning:
Frames ["test" cmd.doc ument. getElementById ('menu ');
In the browser, the frame name attribute is equivalent to the window object of the Child page by default, so it can be further abbreviated:
Test.doc ument. getElementById ('menu ');
2) access sub-page functions or objects on the parent page. The function and object of the subpage are in the window object. The key is to obtain the object.
Java code
// If child.html defines the showMesg function and needs to be called in the parent, write
Window. frames ['test']. showMesg ();
// Abbreviated form
Test. showMesg ();
// Similarly, the object is also accessed
Alert (test. person );
3) Other methods to obtain the document.
Use 'document. getElementById () 'or 'document. getElementsByTagName () 'obtains the frame as an Element under the document and then accesses its attributes contentDocument/contentWindow (exclusive to iframe and frame). The first ie7 is not supported, the second chrome is not supported.
Java code
<Iframe id = "testId" src = "child.html"> </iframe>
// ======
Var doc = document. getElementById ('testid ');
// Or
Var doc = document. getElementsByTagName ('iframe') [0];
Then
Var winOrdoc = doc. contentDocument | doc. contentWindow; // select either.
If(winOrdoc.document)winOrdoc=winOrdoc.doc ument;
WinOrdoc. getElementById ('menu ');
4) access the parent page element from the Child page. Thinking is the same as 1st, first get the parent window named Doc ument object.
Java code
Parent.w.w.doc ument. getElementById ('parentmenu ');
// Shorthand
Parent.doc ument. getElementById ('parentmenu ');
5) access the function or object of the parent page on the Child page. The idea is the same as 2.2. first obtain the parent window object.
Java code
Parent. parentFunction ();
